Renewal Information for the Board of Massage Therapy
A notice for renewal is mailed to each licensee at the
last address provided to the Board. Failure to receive this notification
does not relieve the licensee of the responsibility of meeting the
renewal or continuing education requirements.
Establishments - If
there have been any changes in either the location or the ownership of a
massage establishment, you may download the application and submit when completed, along with the appropriate
fees to the Board office. Any deletion or addition of an owners’ name to
or from a massage establishment is considered a change of ownership.
(You can not indicate a change of ownership or location of a massage
establishment on a renewal notice).
By renewing and submitting the appropriate renewal fees,
you are acknowledging compliance with all requirements for renewal. You
are responsible for retaining proof of all earned continuing education
hours for a period of four (4) years. All massage therapists renewing
active licenses are subject to audit and may be asked to show proof of
appropriate continuing education.
You should renew as soon as possible when your receive
the renewal notice. All renewal applications, with the appropriate fees,
must be postmarked on or before the expiration date of the license in
order to be considered timely.

proof of current licensure. If you do not have your new license by the
expiration date your employer may verify your license at the Health
Licensee and Continuing Education Providers Information website. If
your license renewal is in progress the status will not be available on
the website. You will need to contact us at (850) 488-0595 to verify
that your renewal application, with the proper fee, has been received
and validated. However, you should be allowed to continue working. |
